At last the fervent prayer that we have had on this page for many years, for love and dignity to win out over fear and prejudice, has been fulfilled.Now, may all people respond with love.“No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice and family. In forming a marital union, two people become something greater than once they were. As some of the petitioners in these cases demonstrate, marriage embodies a love that may endure even past death. It would misunderstand these men and women to say they disrespect the idea of marriage. Their plea is that they do respect it, respect it so deeply that they seek to find its fulfillment for themselves. Their hope is not to be condemed to live in loneliness, excluded from one of civilizations oldest institutions. They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The constitution grants them that right. The judgement of the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit is reversed. It is so ordered.” Justice Anthony M. Kennedy for the majority

To
our gay & lesbian friends, a note from Mandira:

"Welcome to Crystal Realm. Your relationship is respected here, and Tom and I are thrilled that at last gay marriage is known as the law of the land. We could not be happier for you, our gay or lesbian client, to know that equality reigns and you may now marry no matter in what state you live!

"We'll confess right off the
bat that our unique Gay & Lesbian Ring Collections were not developed
specifically for a G & L clientele. However, we found that the "alternative-style" rings
we carried in our stores were so popular with all our gay and lesbian customers,
that we felt certain we had to make them available to you, our online friend.

Our talented puzzle ring artist creates some of
the most strikingly original rings, based on inspiration from Celtic
knotwork, representing the linking and bonding of your love relationship.

Today's open-minded and creative couples frequently choose our puzzle rings
for their unique flair. And if you wish, you can take your ring apart
and learn to put it back together with our animated and video puzzle
ring instructions.

Our stunning Celtic commitment rings are made in Ireland and stamped
in the Dublin Assay Office in Dublin Castle, the oldest continuously
operating assay office in the world. (Assaying means determining the
gold or platinum content of your ring, which is done with every single
one of our Celtic rings.)

Totally unique, custom,
hand-woven puzzle engagement rings, with or without poesy, Celtic or shadow commitment/wedding rings,
are exquisite and will blow away any idea you had about "boring" engagement
rings.

Our lesbian friends
who want non-traditional engagement rings have embraced these, since they
are one of the most individualized ways you can express your love in
jewelry.

Order your puzzle engagement ring, and when you are ready to order your custom companion band, we will pick up your puzzle ring and make a custom-fit wedding band in your choice of style. Here are a few shadow bands we have made. Each one is a one-off original. Stand-alone partner bands to match or complement are available, too. Please talk to us about what you want.

Thank
you for visiting Crystal Realm. We welcome you and look forward
to helping you find the
perfect expressions of your love and
commitment
to one another in gold or platinum.
(Select styles available
in
sterling silver, as shown on site.)
